Do you think that Rise of China is inevitable or it may collapse like any other authoritarian regimes including former the Soviet Union and East European Countries?
Answer:
China will not collapse like the USSR or Eastern European countries.
They are heavily invested in Africa. They have the means to continue to produce goods. They have cheap labor that other countries continue to use.
China plans their economic goals and priorities decades in advance.
The Soviet Union was never an economic super power.
The Best Company is reviewing two options for replacing a piece of machinery. The first machine costs $100,230 and has a four-year life. The second machine costs $155,000 and has a six-year life. Neither machine will have a salvage value. The machines will be replaced at the end of their life. What method should be used to determine which machine to purchase?
Answer:
Equivalent annual cost method
Explanation:
Equivalent annual cost method is a method used to choose between two projects with an unequal life span
The decision rule is to choose the product with the higher Equivalent annual cost
Equivalent annual cost method is better for making this decision because if net present value is used, the project with the higher useful life would be chosen. this does not mean it is more profitable

A 30-year $185,000 amortized mortgage loan has a fixed interest rate of 4.375% and fixed monthly payments. The monthly payment is $923.68. The beginning balance of the loan in the 30th month is $177,391.93. Calculate the ending balance of the loan at the end of the 30th month after this month's payment.
Answer:
$177,114.99
Explanation:
The ending balance of the loan at the end of the 30th month after the monthly payment is the beginning balance at the beginning of the month plus the interest for the month minus the monthly payment.
Note that the interest expense for the month increases the loan balance while the monthly payment reduces the balance.
interest expense for 30th month=beginning balance*fixed interest rate/2
interest expense for 30th month=$177,391.93*4.375%/12
interest expense for 30th month=$646.74
monthly payment =$923.68
The ending balance of the loan=$177,391.93+$646.74-$923.68
The ending balance of the loan=$177,114.99
Dan purchases a 1000 par value 10-year bond with 9% semiannual couponsfor 925. He is able to reinvest his coupon payments at a nominal rate of 7%convertible semiannually.Calculate his nom
Answer:
9.2%
Explanation:
Missing word "Calculate his nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually over the ten-year period"
Semi annual coupon payments = 9% / 2 = 4.5%
Par value = 4.5% * 1,000 = $45
interest rate per period = r = 7% / 2 = 3.5%
Number of periods, n = 2 x 10 = 20
FV of all the coupons reinvested = 45 / r * [(1 + r)^n - 1]
FV of all the coupons reinvested = 45 / 3.5% * [(1 + 3.5%)^20 - 1]
FV of all the coupons reinvested = $1,272.59
Receipt of par value at the end of the 10 years = par value = 1,000
Total accumulated value at the end of 10 years = $1,272.59 + 1,000
Total accumulated value at the end of 10 years = $2,272.59
Invested amount = $925
i = nominal interest convertible semi annually.
$925 * (1 + i / 2)^n = 2,272.59
925 * (1 + i / 2)^20 = 2,272.59
i = 2 * [(2,272.59 / 925)^1/20 - 1]
I = 9.19%
I = 9.2%
So, his nominal annual yield rate convertible semiannually over the ten-year period is 9.2%

Weighted-average unit cost $____
Calculate the ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO, LIFO and average-cost methods. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)
FIFO LIFO Average Cost
$____ $____ $_______
Answer:
a. Weighted-average unit cost = $9.092
b. We have:
Ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO method = $290
Ending inventory at May 31 using the LIFO method = $232
Ending inventory at May 31 using the average-cost method = $264
Explanation:
a. Calculate the weighted-average unit cost. (Round answer to 3 decimal places, e.g. 5.125.)
Weighted-average unit cost = Total Cost of units of inventory available for sale / Total units of units of inventory available for sale = $891 / 98 = $9.092
b. Calculate the ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO, LIFO and average-cost methods. (Round answers to 0 decimal places, e.g. 125.)
Ending inventory in units = Total units of units of inventory available for sale – Units sold = 98 - 69 = 29
Therefore, we have:
Ending inventory at May 31 using the FIFO method = Ending inventory in units * Unit cost of purchases on May 24 = 29 * $10 = $290
Ending inventory at May 31 using the LIFO method = Ending inventory in units * Unit cost of inventory on May 1 = 29 * $8 = $232
Ending inventory at May 31 using the average-cost method = Ending inventory in units * Weighted-average unit cost = 29 * $9.092 = $264
An investor enters into a short oil futures contract when the futures price is $15.5 per barrel. The contract size of 100 barrels of oil. How much does the investor gain or lose if the oil price at the end of the contract equals $14.0
Answer:
$150
Explanation:
Calculation to determine How much does the investor gain or lose if the oil price at the end of the contract equals $14.0
Using this formula
Gain or Loss =(Futures price- Ending contract)*Contract size
Let plug in the formula
Gain or Loss=$15.5 per barrel- $14.0* 100 barrels
Gain or Loss=$1.5*100
Gain or Loss=$150
Therefore How much does the investor gain or lose if the oil price at the end of the contract equals $14.0 will be $150
University Car Wash built a deluxe car wash across the street from campus. The new machines cost $270,000 including installation. The company estimates that the equipment will have a residual value of $24,000. University Car Wash also estimates it will use the machine for six years or about 12,000 total hours. Actual use per year was as follows: Year Hours Used 1 3,100 2 1,100 3 1,200 4 2,800 5 2,600 6 1,200 2. Prepare a depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.
Answer:
Year Depreciation expenses
1 $90,000
2 $60,000
3 $40,000
4 $26,667
5 $17,778
6 $11,556
Explanation:
Note: See the attached excel file for the depreciation schedule for six years using the double-declining-balance method.
The double-declining-balance method is a depreciation approach in which the rate of depreciation for an asset is twice the rate of depreciation for the straight line method.
In the attached excel, the double-declining-balance depreciation rate is therefore calculated as follows:
Straight line depreciation rate = 1 / Number of expected useful years = 1 / 6 = 0.166666666666667 = 16.6666666666667%
Double-declining depreciation rate = Straight line depreciation rate * 2 = 16.6666666666667% *2 = 33.3333333333334%
Also note the following in the attached excel file:
Beginning depreciable amount in Year 1 = Cost of the new machine = $270,000
The depreciation expenses for Year 6 is calculated by deducting the residual value of $24,000 from Year 6 Beginning depreciable amount. That is:
Depreciation expenses for Year 6 = $35,556 - $24,000 = $11,556
The residual value of $24,000 therefore represents the book value at the end of Year 6.
From the attached excel file, we therefore have:
Year Depreciation expenses
1 $90,000
2 $60,000
3 $40,000
4 $26,667
5 $17,778
6 $11,556
To obtain an FHA-insured loan, the buyers will have to pay a MIP of 1.75 points, which will be financed into the loan. What will be the amount of their loan if FHA insures 96.5% of the appraised value and this property appraises for $210,000 (the maximum loan the FHA will insure in their area is $271,000)?
Answer:
$206,196.38
Explanation:
Calculation to determine what will be the amount of their loan
Loan Amount=($210,000 × 0.965)+[($210,000 × 0.965)×0.0175]
Loan Amount=$202,650+ ($202,650 × 0.0175)
Loan Amount=$202,650 + $3,546.38
Loan Amount= $206,196.38
Therefore What will be the amount of their loan is $206,196.38
On the basis of this information, what were total maintenance costs when the company experienced 23,000 machine hours of activity, total maintenance costs averaged $34.30 per hour. When activity jumped to 27,000 machine hours, which was still within the relevant range, the average total cost per machine hour was $27.30.
a. On the basis of this information, the variable cost per machine hour was:___________
b. On the basis of this information, the fixed cost was:___________-
c. On the basis of this information, what were total maintenance costs when the company experienced 25,000 machine hours?
Answer:
Results are below.
Explanation:
First, we need to calculate the total cost for each activity level:
High activity level= 27,000*27.3= $737,100
Low activity level= 23,000*34.3= $788,900
Now, using the high-low method, we can determine the variable and fixed costs:
Variable cost per unit= (Highest activity cost - Lowest activity cost)/ (Highest activity units - Lowest activity units)
Variable cost per unit= (788,900 - 737,100) / (27,000 - 23,000)
Variable cost per unit= $12.95 per machine-hour
Fixed costs= Highest activity cost - (Variable cost per unit * HAU)
Fixed costs= 788,900 - (12.95*27,000)
Fixed costs= $439,250
Fixed costs= LAC - (Variable cost per unit* LAU)
Fixed costs= 737,100 - (12.95*23,000)
Fixed costs= $439,250
Finally, for 25,000 hours:
Total cost= 439,250 + 12.95*2,5000
Total cost= $763,000
For tax reasons, your client wishes to purchase an annuity that pays $100,000 each year for 6 years, with the first payment in one year. At an interest rate of 7% and focusing on time value of money without consideration of any fees, how much would the client need to invest now
Answer:
the amount that should be invested now is $476,654
Explanation:
The computation of the amount that should be invested now is shown below:
= Payment made each year × (1 - (1 + rate of interest)^-number of years) ÷ rate of interest
= $100,000 × [1 - (1 + 7%)^-6] ÷ 7%
= $476,654
hence, the amount that should be invested now is $476,654
On Jan 1 2020, Ethan Corporation issued 12% bonds with a face value of $4,000,000. These bonds mature in ten years, and interest is paid semiannually on June 30 and December 31. The bonds were sold for $4,498,490 to yield 10%. Ethan uses a calendar-year reporting period. Using the effective-interest method of amortization, what amount of interest expense should be reported for 2020
Answer:
Ethan Corporation
Using the effective-interest method of amortization, the amount of interest expense that should be reported for 2020 is:
= $449,096
Explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Face value of bonds issued = $4,000,000
Issue price of the bonds = 4,498,490
Premium on the bonds = $498,490 ($4,498,490 - $4,000,000)
Coupon interest rate = 12%
Effective interest rate = 10%
Interest payments = June 30 and December 31
June 30:
Cash payment for bond interest = $240,000 ($4,000,000 * 6%)
Interest expense = 224,925 ($4,498,490 * 5%)
Amortization of bond premium = $15,075 ($240,000 - $224,925)
Bonds value = $4,483,415 ($4,498,490 - $15,075)
December 31:
Cash payment for bond interest = $240,000 ($4,000,000 * 6%)
Interest expense = 224,171 ($4,483,415 * 5%)
Amortization of bond premium = $15,829 ($240,000 - $224,171)
Bonds value = $4,467,586 ($4,483,415 - $15,829)
Interest expense for 2020 = $449,096 ($224,925 + $224,171)

A company would like to invest in a capital budget project that will be worth $500,000 in 40 years. How much should this company invest today, assuming an average inflation rate of 2% and a 10% annual return
Answer:
Company needs to invest amount = $23000
Explanation:
Below is the calculation of the present value:
Given the future value, FV = $500000
Number of years, n = 40 years
Real interest rate = 10% - 2% = 8%
Present value = ?
Present value = FV (P/F, r, n)
Present value = $500000 (P/F, 8%, 40)
Present value = $500000 (0.046)
Present value = $23000
Company needs to invest amount = $23000
Tracey Sales Co. has predicted the following costs for this year for 500,000 units: Manufacturing Selling and Administrative Variable $ 800,000 $250,000 Fixed 1,200,000 300,000 Total $2,000,000 $550,000 What is the markup on variable manufacturing costs needed to break even
Answer: 218.75%
Explanation:
In order to breakeven, the variable manufacturing cost would have to be the same as the fixed costs in addition to the administrative costs.
= Fixed costs + Administrative cost
= 1,200,000 + 550,000
= $1,750,000
Variable cost needs to be $1,750,000
It is currently at $800,000 so it needs to increase by:
= 1,750,000 / 800,000 * 100%
= 218.75%
Bantam company calculated its net income to be $38,775 based on the unadjusted trial balance. The following adjusting entries were then made for:
Salaries and wages owed but not yet paid of $395.
Interest earned but not received from investments of $375.
Prepaid insurance premiums amounting to $275 have expired.
Unearned revenue in the amount of $805 has now been earned.
Required:
Determine the amount of net income (loss) that will be reported after the adjustments are recorded.
Answer:
the amount of net income or loss is $39,285
Explanation:
The computation of the amount of net income or loss is shown below:

= $38,775 + $375 + $805 - $395 - $275
= $39,285
hence, the amount of net income or loss is $39,285
The same should be considered and relevant
Assume a market for a normal good is currently in equilibrium. If the government increases the taxes that firms must pay, then:
Answer:
The supply will decrease.
Explanation:
The supply will decrease because the application of taxes will make selling costly. Thus, when cost increases then producers supply less. Therefore, less quantity will be supplied in the market when tax is imposed and this will increase the prices of products.

In most situations, asset values do not equal the amount of money that could be realized if the assets were sold.
a. True
b. False
Answer:
True
Explanation:
The answer to this question is true. The recording of assets is usually done at cost. This is equivalent to the value that was exchanged when the asset was sold. In a country like the United States for example, if an asset such as a land or machine gets to appreciate in value after a period of time, it is not usually revalued. Therefore the answer to this question is true.
Neptune Company produces toys and other items for use in beach and resort areas. A small, inflatable toy has come onto the market that the company is anxious to produce and sell. The new toy will sell for $3.30 per unit. Enough capacity exists in the company’s plant to produce 30,200 units of the toy each month. Variable expenses to manufacture and sell one unit would be $2.08, and fixed expenses associated with the toy would total $54,766 per month. The company's Marketing Department predicts that demand for the new toy will exceed the 30,200 units that the company is able to produce. Additional manufacturing space can be rented from another company at a fixed expense of $2,738 per month. Variable expenses in the rented facility would total $2.31 per unit, due to somewhat less efficient operations than in the main plant.
Required:
1. What is the monthly break-even point for the new toy in unit sales and dollar sales?
2. How many units must be sold each month to attain a target profit of $12,474 per month?
3. If the sales manager receives a bonus of 20 cents for each unit sold in excess of the break-even point, how many units must be sold each month to attain a target profit that equals a 29% return on the monthly investment in fixed expenses?
Answer:
1) Break-even point in unit sales: 51,680 units
Break-even point in dollar sales: $144,704
2) The units that must be sold each month to attain a target profit of $12,474 per month are:
= 63,669 units
3) The units that must be sold each month to attain a target profit that equals a 29% return on the monthly investment in fixed expenses are:
= 108,574 units
Explanation:
1. On the first 30,200 units
Sales price $3.30
Variable expenses $2.08
Contribution margin $1.22
Above 30,200 units
Sales price $3.30
Variable expenses $2.31
Contribution margin $0.99
Fixed cost for initial 30,200 units = $54,766
Less: Contribution Margin (30,200 units * $1.22) + $36,844
Remaining uncovered cost = $17,922 ($54,766 - $36,844)
Monthly rental for additional space = $2,738
Total fixed costs covered by remaining sales = $20,660 ($17,922 + $2,738)
Required units = $20,660 / 0.99 = 20,869 units
Breakeven units = 30,200 + 20,869= 51,069 units
51,069 * $3.3 = $168,528
2)
Working: $12,474 / 0.99 = 12,600 units
Thus total units = 51,069 + 12,600 = 63,669
3)
Working: Desired monthly expenses: $54,766 + $2,738 = 57,504
57,504 * 20% = 11,501
Unit contribution margin: 0.99 - 0.20 = 0.79
Contribution margin = Target profit / Unit contribution margin = 11,501 / 0.20 = 57,505 units
51,069 units + 57,505 units = 108,574 units

Lot’s Wife Manufacturing produces rear-view video systems for buses. The firm’s cost function is TC = 2,000 + 120 Q. If the systems sell for $145, what is the break-even rate of production?
Answer:
80
Explanation:
in this question we have the cost function to be
TC = 2,000 + 120 Q.
breakeven point is at total cost = total revenue
total revenue = p*q
= 145 *Q= 145Q
tc = total cost = 145Q
145Q = 2000 + 120Q
We collect like terms from this equation above
145Q-120Q= 2000
25Q = 2000
divide through by 25
Q = 2000/25
q = 80
the breakeven rate of production is 80 quantities.
In activity-based costing, unit product costs computed for external financial reports include: Multiple Choice direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead. direct materials and direct labor. direct labor and manufacturing overhead. direct materials and manufacturing overhead.
Answer: direct materials, direct labor, and manufacturing overhead.
Explanation:
When it comes to the costs that are apportioned to a product as its cost, activity-based costing believes that this include both the direct and indirect costs of production.
The direct costs would include the materials and the labor directly involved in the product's production as well as the indirect manufacturing overhead with the logic being that even though manufacturing overheads do not directly impact the production of the good, production would not be able to happen without them.
If a firm has sales of $100, total expenses (including interest and taxes) of $50, has a stock that is selling at $50 per share and has 10 shares of stock outstanding, then the firm has a P/E ratio of:
Answer: 10
Explanation:
P/E Ratio = Price per share/Earnings per share
Earnings per share:
= (Sales - expenses) / number of shares outstanding
= (100 - 50) / 10
= $5.00
P/E Ratio is therefore:
= 50 / 5
= 10
